This protein-rich salad transports well, but if you are concerned about the fishy smell just bring the can of little fishies along with your stored container of salad. Drain and toss in just before enjoying. The Marinated Carrot Slaw lasts well for the week, so make a large amount and enjoy it 2 or 3 times as a perfect nutrient packed side for lunch.

With a zesty marinade, this salad is a perfect side dish or a main dish with a sprinkle of nuts to take on the go. As the days continue the flavors meld and make this salad even more magical.

Garbanzo Bean & Brisling Salad

If you like tuna & bean salads, do not hesitate to try this one. A few of you may be turned off from it since brislings are technically sardines. I hesitated too, until we tasted it and then we almost forgot to take a photo because we were too busy devouring it. Sardines are packed with Omega-3 oils, are low-mercury and are one of the best fish to eat sustainably. This dish is inspired by Alton Brown’s weight-loss trick of eating Sardine-Avocado Sandwiches. Be sure to buy a nice quality can of sardines, smoked is nice, and be sure it is packed in olive oil for an extra dose of healthy fat.
